So far I haven't done that but from those I have heard that have hit a fish ( cut in 2) or a log or the bottom the rider has gone out the front door but no damage. If you were to damage something I would hope the fin bolts sheared, that would be cheapest. The PowerPlate spreads the load pretty good though.

Just to be safe I ran a thin leash line from the upper mast to my rear footstraps so I wouldn't lose the whole foil.

Hey guys I appreciate your feedback. A few notes: the powerbox head is milled from solid aluminum and tapped to 6mm. The plate is also solid aluminum and drilled & tapped to 6mm for 28 holes. The padding is from NSI and a high density foam. This kind of machining costs money and it's not China built.

As for placement this offers a range that is big enough for all boards, I have tested it for that.

traditional power box pot has a barrel nut placed in such a manner that if one runs aground hard or encounters a large obstacle, the barrel nut tears away and one loses the fin, and not breaking the board.

i would recommend using a very disposable board for foiling endeavors with this system. the risk of running aground hard coupled with the threaded pot instead of barrel nut increases the odds of buckling or shearing the board.
